Check out the Trailer!
While serving a five-year sentence for a violent crime, a 12-year-old boy sues his parents for neglect. Zain is a gutsy, streetwise child who journeys to a hardened 12-year-old “adult” fleeing his negligent parents, surviving through his wits on the streets, taking care of Ethiopian refugee Rahil and her baby son Yonas, being jailed for a violent crime, and finally, seeking justice in a courtroom.
